You've TiVo-ed the latest episode of Game of Thrones, but when you were supposed to watch it, you fell asleep because you were so tired from work. You wanted to watch it while commuting to work the next day but you can't very well bring your Tivo machine while on the subway or bus. The new update to the TiVo app for Android will solve that problem for you as it will let you stream shows you've recorded on your Tivo.

Four countries are now the recipients of an advanced birthday gift from Google. Well, that is, if they actually were hankering to be able to access paid content from the Google Newsstand. India, the Netherlands, Russia and Spain were added to the list of countries that can now buy newspapers and magazines from the Newsstand, joining a very “elite” number of countries that can do so.

The Humble Bundle has been around for a while now giving mobile gamers access to some cool games in a bundle where you can pay what you want for access to the games. The Humble Bundle 7 is now available for gamers to grab and as always, it brings access to full versions of games that are DRM-free.

If there’s one thing casual gamers hate (with the fire of a thousand suns), it’s those single player casual games that require you to have internet connection. It just defeats the purpose of casual gaming. You want to pass the time and chill out, play a couple of games. Adding the internet requirement just boosts the stress level up a couple of notches. So yes, this is a good move for Google Play – to promote games that don’t need a live internet connection.

Android has no dearth of games, but sometimes, they tend to congregate on tried and tested money makers or "safe bets". There are some, however, that do try to strike out on their own and attempt to bring game styles that, while not exactly totally new, are not that common on Android. Lionheart Tactics from Kongregate, the same guys who just last week brought Game of Thrones Ascent to Android, is a game set to the tune of the likes of Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem, but can it really stand up to these two classics?

Since Season 4 ended last month and the new one isn’t coming to the small screen until next year, you’re probably scouring through the Interwebs for something to fill that Game of Thrones-shaped hole in your heart. Well, look no further than your Android phone as the award-winning game based on the TV series has finally made its way into the mobile world with Game of Thrones Ascent.

Europe is at war. England is under attack by Axis planes sent by an evil empire with “occultic" plans. You are one of the last hopes of a whole continent and they send you in together with other brave fighter pilots. You bring out your secret weapon. No, it’s not the latest bio weapon, but a Sony Smartwatch2 and Smartband! What?

With a week left before the smartwatch actually ships to store shelves and would-be owners, Google has updated the list of chosen ones that will carry the Samsung Gear Live at launch. With Australia, Japan, and South Korea added to the mix, that roster now comes to a total of 11 markets for one of Google's first Android Wear devices.

Now that we've got a good dose of the three first Android Wear smartwatches, it's time for the biggest question mark of all: when and where will these devices be sold. While the Samsung Gear Live and LG G Watch are quite eager to start rolling to the masses, the Motorola Moto 360 is taking a more laid back approach, which might be enough reason to hold off on buying any of these immediately.

Rumors, and dreams, do come true. A last minute addition but definitely a welcome one, Samsung Gear Live joined LG and Motorola on stage as the first three official devices for the nascent Android Wear platform. And here at Google I/O, we're getting a first-hand look at what Samsung has to offer.
